Robert Been

“We stopped being able to talk to each other. And we found ourselves onstage all playing a different song at the same time. It was pretty pathetic and felt like it was just symbolic of where we were at. We ended up getting into this terrible violent fight and our tour manager had to put us in different corners just to break it up.”

“We were in just too dark of a place and the spirit wasnt there anymore. We just wanted to go back home, but before we could make any sense of it, Nick grabbed the car and went back to London.”

“Peter told me hed be more happy pumping gas than doing this, so I had to listen to him. But I felt obliterated.”

“We decided not to tell anyone that we werent a band anymore, but that was really difficult. It was just a very intense time.”

“I think we just needed to tear everything down first to build it back up again.”

“We decided to let the songs determine where the record was going to go. I had written only a couple of songs before, but we decided just to go with our gut and try different approaches to everything.”
